BSC Young Boys vs Aston Villa CL Pre-Match

[Clark W Griswold]

These are currently bottom of the league.

I don’t want to ‘shoot’ my mouth off too much but I reckon we’ll ‘splatter’ them.

[Dogtanian]

I just hope we don't make it hard for ourselves.  But I guess even when it's hard, we have that explosive energy.

I completely agree. I think if we start finding openings, we'll stand proud, and they may struggle to contain the swelling excitement.

Their defence will be in for a stiff challenge with what we're packing up front.

I'm sure we'll pull it off.

In preparation for the game I've just splashed out on a new Villa top.

Can you imagine if we lose, there will be a mass debate on here after.

[cdward]

Imagine if we take the lead and then lose, "Young Boys come from behind"

[Bad English]

I hope Young Boys don't make a lot of bald men cry.

Equally you can just hear them complaining if we penetrate their tight defence.

[Border villan]

How many subs allowed in CL matches to allow some of our boys to be pulled off at half time.

[darren woolley]

I think we will be ok we will be prepared for them I don't think the players will be nervous because it's the CL they will be up for this.

[Bad English]

Indeed, we will all be up for this.

[Dogtanian]

I just hope our new kit is up to the challenge and the Adidas socks can handle the load.

[Footy-Vill]

This is not family friendly and more X rated.
Really if people must insist on some cheap thrill humour there should be an explicit thread and non explicit thread for this Young Boys match!

[Footy-Vill]

BSC Young Boys are a real Jekyll & Hyde team at the moment, overcoming Galatasaray to reach the main Champions League stage, but bottom of the Swiss Super League with no wins in 6 matches. YB (pronounced a bit like 'eBay') has not really replaced key players such as Nsame and Ulisses Garcia and a bafflingly cautious transfer policy over the summer, combined with quite a few injuries (Loris Benito and Kastriot Imeri, for example), has left their squad looking short of leaders on the field.

There have been a few belated transfers after their bad start to the league, such as Alan Virginius, who scored the key goal in Istanbul, but YB is certainly not firing on all cylinders yet.

This is the sort of contribution expecting more of!
